Kevin Csoboth scored a thrilling goal in the 100th minute of Hungary’s 1-0 victory over Scotland in a pivotal Group A encounter of UEFA Euro 2024. This stands as the latest goal in regulation time in Euro history. Germany, Switzerland, Hungary, and Scotland are in Group A. Switzerland would probably follow Germany into the Round of 16, so Scotland’s match against Hungary was crucial to clinching third place.
Scotland would not have advanced as one of the top third-ranked teams, even with a draw giving them third place and insufficient points. Hungary required a victory to remain competitive. Throughout the game, Hungary managed five on-target shots out of 14 efforts, while Scotland managed just one shot on goal out of four tries. Up to the very end, there was no score in the match.
The second-half stoppage time, which was increased to 12 minutes, marked a turning moment. After a Scottish corner, Hungary’s Kevin Csoboth scored on a counterattack in the 100th minute to eliminate Scotland and preserve their hopes. At 99 minutes and 32 seconds, Csoboth scored his first goal for his country since making his debut the previous year. This also created a new record for the latest regulation goal in the history of the European Championship.
